Dear Disney: At the end of the last story, Edward was sent to the works to be mended, and Lady decided to at least go with him to send him off, but at the works, she meets a new railway, with some new engines and new drivers. This railway is very special and so are the engines and drivers, and that's why I'm making this story to reflect on what happens on this railway.

Skarloey Remembers

The Fat Controller had send Edward to the works to be mended after his heroic deed of saving James and Jock. Lady decided to go with Edward to the works so she can say goodbye to him before he goes to be mended. When they arrived at the workstation there's a small little railway with a shed, inside the shed was an engine Edward knew a long time ago.

Edward (Thinking): That's Skarloey. What's he doing in the shed?

Lady noticed the engine too. Later the workmen came and told Edward that were busy and had no room for him at the moment, so he ask them if he could be put on a siding next to Skarloey. The workmen put him on the siding and Edward whistled to wake up Skarloey. When Skarloey woke up he was happy to see Edward.

Skarloey: Oh my. Edward, my old friend! It's been so long since you've visited the railway.

Edward: Hello Skarloey. It's nice to see you. What are you doing in the shed? Usually you'd be working by now.

Skarloey: I would love to work if I could, but I'm afraid my age is showing and my parts aren't what they used to be. That goes the same for my brother.

Edward understood and he told Skarloey that he was going to the works to be mended.

Skarloey: You too, I see. First my brother and now you. By the way, who's that sweet dog you have in your cab?

Lady: I'm Lady. I'm Edward's helper.

Skarloey: Ah, so I see that the railway still allows dogs to help out around here.

Lady: Do you have a helper, too?

Skarloey: Yes, I do, but…

?: Skarloey, who are you talking to outside…?

A little man with a beard, glasses, and yellow hat came out from Skarloey's shed.

?: Edward?

Edward: Hello, Doc. Good to see you again.

Doc: Edward! It's good to see you again! Who's this lovely puppy?

Lady: My name is Lady. I can see you understand dogs?

Doc: Actually we understand all kinds of animals, thanks to our friend Snow White. So what brings you here, Edward?

And Edward told Doc about being mended.

Doc: Great. I'm proud of you, you always were a hero, even as a young engine.

Edward: Thank you, but how's your railway doing? I heard Skarloey mention something about his brother, Rheneas.

Doc: Oh yes. Well Rheneas had a cramp on his gears and he's going to works to be mended. We have two new engines now working on the railway, and one of them helped pushed Rheneas to his truck.

Lady: I hope he comes back soon.

Skarloey: I'm sure he will. But I wish I was mended too. I would love to come out and do some work, instead of staying here like an old fashioned engine.

Edward: I understand. I remember the days I was left alone in the sheds because the engines were bigger and stronger than me, but thanks to Lady, I can now work as much as I can. And get this, she's married to Tramp.

Skarloey and Doc: YOU ARE!?

Lady blushed and nodded.

Skarloey: I remember Tramp. He was a troublemaker that pup, but he also had a good heart and we love when he and his brother would visit us.

Lady: Wait, brother?

Doc: Tramp never told you about his brother?

Lady: No. I didn't think he had a brother or a sister.

Doc: He did. His named was Rump and he and Tramp were the first dogs working on the railway when it first opened, back then there were only three engines. Edward, Gordon and his brother the Flying Scotsman. Tramp would usually work with either Edward or Gordon and his brother would work with the Flying Scotsman.

Lady: Where's Tramp's brother now?

Edward: He live in New York now with his engine, it's been about 4 years since any of us has seen him, and I think I know why he moved to America.

Doc: You really don't think that's the real reason, do you?

Edward: I'm not sure, but it's possible.

Lady: What do you mean?

Skarloey: Well there's a rumor going around that there was actually another engine when this railway was open, but no one has ever seen it, the only ones that knows about the engine is Rump and Tramp.

Doc: Supposedly there was some kind of tragic accident involving an engine, along with a driver and a dog, but there's no hard evidences to prove that there was a crash or that there was a dog or an driver or even an engine.

Before Edward could explain some more, some workmen came up.

Workmen: Alright Edward. We've just got finished setting up, we're ready to take you in now.

Edward: Doc, could you and Skarloey watch Lady for me please?

Skarloey: Sure thing, it would nice to have someone new to talk you, and thank you for talking to me Edward. You've really cheer me up.

Edward: So long.

So while Edward was away, Lady stayed and talked to Skarloey and Doc.
